sedekah,zakat,fitrah

My mom is so strict, although i told her she can pay my fitrah on my behalf, using my money, she still insist that i go to Pakcik (Imam near my hse) to pay it myself.
So yesterday was the second time I paid my own fitrah. In a way its a good practise, reading the akad yourself.

Talking about sedekah, let us rajin2kan diri bersedekah in this holy month. I still cannot understand how people easily splurge on buka puasa and end up easily throwing out what they dont eat. Of all the months, this is the time when you bought too much, give it off to your friends, neighbours, beggars ka...

Cannot understand how you say, tak sempat makan, so have to throw it out. It sounds to me that you're so greedy you want to keep it to yourself and eventhough you think you wouldnt be eating the food, you dont want some else to eat it..

In another situation,you dont feel guilty because it was sedekah to you by your neighbours, but it's still the same.if you share, it can easily be finished. Or if you dont want it in the first place, give it off to family people...senang jer nak abihkan..


please please people...appreciate food more...

so far my sedekah is still questionable as well...so hopefully i can improve, if only i remember to always bring my purse along to surau..
